NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- Mayor Eric Adams is expected to discuss the future of New York City on Friday, but a new Marist poll apparently shows that city residents do not think that future should include him.

The poll found 69% of NYC residents believe the mayor should resign, including 71% of the Democrats. And 80% think he shouldn't run again for office while 30% say he should serve out the rest of his term.

If the mayor does not resign, 63% said Gov. Kathy Hochul should begin the process of removing Adams from his position while 36% do not think Hochul should take these measures.

The Marist New York City Poll is the first conducted since the mayor was indicted.

"Not only do New York City residents think he has done something illegal, but they think he should resign or have Governor Hochul start the process of removing him from office," the poll concludes.

Despite the poll results, Adams is continuing to try to convince New Yorkers that he is still capable of running the city despite the ongoing criminal trial and several high-profile members of his inner circle resigning.

Amid the City Hall turmoil, there was another bombshell announcement this week that New York City School Chancellor David Banks is stepping down earlier than originally announced.

The timeline for his departure was seemingly fast-tracked. Banks said in a statement he was willing and able to stay on until December, but that the mayor made the decision.

Hochul is seemingly continuing to put pressure on the mayor to clean house.

"I'm also working to make sure the key positions, working with the mayor, are filled with people who are going to be responsible, but it is ultimately his decision to make those, and I'm just letting him know that we are monitoring the situation, we expect changes, that's not a secret, and changes are beginning," Hochul said.

As the purge at City Hall continues, the big question is who could be next to leave the Adams administration?

All eyes are on two key people who have had their homes raided, and phones seized by the authorities; David Banks' wife, Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright and his brother, Phil Banks, the Deputy Mayor for Public Safety.
